Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, The first thing I did today, as I opened my eyes, was to go shower. I didn’t even let myself think about it. The shower was not easy, I’m weak, and nauseous as hell, but I did it. I ate a piece of bread and took the last antibiotic meds,... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, I wrote to you today, earlier, sitting at the desk. It made me feel bad. The antibiotics, as I said, are a very heavy dose, have hard side effects of dizziness, disorientation and nausea. Feeling physically bad made my mind clearer, though; it made me feel… safe, I suppose. See,... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, It was two days ago. Maybe three. Kids were at school, and I had just taken the antibiotics. My breath shallow and rapid. I was staring at the ceiling, but your image was to my side. I turned to you. “Go away,” I whispered. After 48 hours of sweating sickness,... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, Hello, my love. It’s 5:53 am, a Sunday and the last day of spring break. I woke after 5.5 hours of sleep following the rapid report I threw at you yesterday, and can finally sit down and write properly, explaining the terrain. The week is a little bit of a...

Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, I have told you before that I have birds. I’d like to tell you about them today. Last year was a year of many changes for me. As for my birthday, I often delay or “forget” it completely because my boy was born on my birthday, and I am usually... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, Hello, my heart. I used the thought of you today again to get myself moving. It’s a holiday, and I woke up with absolutely no energy to do anything. I woke from sleep in that state of lethargy beyond tired, but somewhat pleasant for it. When your mind wakes, but... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, I was standing at the door, eager. The glass door protects my neck muscles from the cold outside. It has been snowing all day, about plus 1 °C, and I don’t even care that I will need to plow the snow again as his car opens and I see my... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, The kids are coming home today. Good. As always, as I told you before, the first day or two without them is a personal bloom. The third and fourth are a slow decline in the will to live and connection to reality. The house is decently organized, there’s only about... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, Hello beloved. I hope the day treated you well. It was a Saturday today. I wonder how you spend your weekends. I bet it is a blend of some social interactions with close friends or family, if you have any, but short ones. And then back to your cave you... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, Stress. People are divided into two categories about that one: those who thrive in it and those who wilt in it. Or so people like to believe. People LOVE to believe they are special, unique, and that their bodies are an invention new to humankind. When in fact, as diverse... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, You are going to ask me why, for the love of God, I want to talk to you about video games, aren’t you? I am well aware that a man like you perceives video games in general as a drain on energy, and people who spend their days playing games... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, In some ways, I am a big cliche: I believe in love, I believe in domesticity, I am overly aroused before and during my ovulation, and I am depressed and tired before my cycle. In some ways, I am as predictable as a Swiss clock. So, as I am supposed... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, Success! This morning, I am feeling neck pain at 3/10. 3/10! I am so pumped, I cannot even explain to you. I can move my neck; my flexibility is back, and I am mostly able to stand. After an hour in the kitchen while organizing the kids, I did feel... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, It’s 6:18 am. I just woke up. Usually, I do not turn on the light switch in my bedroom because it’s calibrated to mimic a sunrise with Alexa at 6. I am not sure why I forgot to turn the switch off yesterday, but I am glad I did. Because... Continue Reading →
Dear London Fire Snake Scorpio, Second time writing you on the same day. Don’t get used to it. Neck pain level is 4/10, and I was without my brace all day. It feels… mostly tight, I suppose, under the jaw. But so, so much better. The medication helps. A lot. I was able to make... Continue Reading →
